Saw agent in Carlist offers up to 5k discount for CVT executive, anything fishy?

2.68% RHB for 7 years above, 7 years below 2.94% MBB, PBB, HLB

4.7K from Derrick, he is also one of the forumer here, 5.5K if CFE. For Executive, I think the best you can get is 5K but those agents got no reviews, so I no bother to try since no big different.

Does Executive model default come with Tint?

5.5K is considered okay, 6K for those agent that gave up commission and go for volume incentive. Don't hesitate to call for few agents. However, he will not give any free gifts like TnG, umbrella, padlock or tint voucher, all converted to cash discount. Since I don't need those kind of free gifts, better take cash offer

Before signing agreement that time already know the chassis number.

Exec CVT 249xx

Next week take car.

4 hours old Preve Exec owner, batch 24xxx

Take a spin along LDP and KESAS, 41KM distance.

1. Rusty exhaust, still there, obvious.
2. Alignment, obvious side to left, need to fix.
3. "Wind noise" from CVT? "hu hu hu...." a bit unacceptable, at high speed >70km/h, okay.

Brown.

I tried a few straight roads along KESAS, it is obvious

Another 80KM spin after out from showroom bay yesterday.

1. Rusty exhaust.
2. Alignment slightly to left (checked tyres pressure, tested on few straight and even surface roads).
3. [Rephrased] The sound is like strong wind blow outside your house, yet to identify whether is it engine rev or CVT whine, particular noisy during 1.4K rpm to 1.9K rpm.
4. Sluggish pick up, Executive CVT I think not our turn to have ECU remap yet.
5. Radio signal got disturbance sometimes (not because of neighbor car FM modulator lah..)

CVT Executive is good when doing highway, comfort and stable. But city drive is really pathetic, heavy body and slow pick up. Imagine during heavy traffic, especially yesterday TTDI got accident after working hours, Manual driver I think leg sure broken, hahaha!

Ya, from KJ. I don't think Exec using Bosch HU, don't know who OEM that.

I use the stored channel, it happens randomly, not particular place. My other car travels the same route every day also does not have this problem. Some reported the reception problem before, I also tried re-screw the antenna, no help also. Maybe try listen to other channel and verify again.

6. Another new problem, air-con fan got weird sound "fi...eee" very annoying when the level is more than half rotation. I checked the old thread, got people reported the same problem as well.

3. If it is CVT whine, it is quite loud and only at low speed, 30km/h to 60km/h like that and in the 1.4k to 1.9k rpm zone.
6. Hmm, I already checked, all are opened, cause was damn hot this afternoon.

Thanks for your advice, I try to test drive other Exec unit (can't find at showroom) or CFE unit to confirm. Haha, bought the car without test drive.

Also Exec CVT, got my car 6 days earlier than you, but CN 24xxx, still rusty exhaust holder and poor radio reception. Rev from 1.5k to 2.0k damn loud "whooing", they said is CVT whine. What to do, showroom no Exec CVT test unit.

Back to FC, getting better now, from 13.5l/100km when the time getting new car, now is 11.7l/100km, average 20km/h. Fuel is BHP.

The rust very easy to spot, I even show it to SA when the time I take my car, tomorrow morning shoot some pics. I tried Shell and Petron before, not much difference, last week just more like learning how to handle the pedal to reduce sluggish.

Not yet, still waiting my first 1k service. The more days I drive, I discover more noise and problem. Any IAFM+ owner want to go to SC together?

Ya, this is the part.

rich8833, where did you spray it? I afraid some SCs just cincai spray, yours one is nicely spray.

Anyone having passenger side window fog issue?
